Abstract
Using the laser flash method and the drop method, the thermal conductivity and the enthalpy increment of the eutectic K-Pb alloy (with a Pb content of 90.7 at.%) were measured in the temperature range from the liquidus point up to 1077-1175 K. The specific heat capacity and thermal diffusivity of the alloy were calculated. Approximation equations for the studied properties were obtained, and a table of reference data was developed. It was shown that the thermal conductivity of the liquid eutectic is less than that of pure lead and increases with temperature.
